Summit Aviation Inc.

Summit Aviation Inc., a Delaware-incorporated for-profit company headquartered in Middletown, Delaware, provides aircraft maintenance and helicopter sustainment services to federal agencies as a prime contractor on full-and-open competitive awards, with no SBA set-asides characterizing its footprint. The vendor operates across 91% prime awards and 9% sub awards, competing predominantly in the open market against unrestricted solicitations.

Summit Aviation's federal footprint centers on a single dominant customer relationship with the Department of the Interior's Office of Policy Management and Budget, which accounts for 189 of 325 tracked prime awards (79% of award count coverage) and $81.4 million of the vendor's $117.7 million combined potential value across all work. The work consists almost entirely of on-call fleet aircraft maintenance for the United States Park Police helicopter fleet in Washington, D.C., issued as delivery orders against two single-award indefinite delivery contracts: a $12 million IDIQ through March 2026 (since extended to a $17.7 million contract running through March 2031, awarded March 19, 2026) and a separate $5 million IDIQ through November 2027 for aircraft fleet maintenance across the lower 48 states in support of Department of the Interior land and resource management programs. The Park Police work includes scheduled and unscheduled inspections, component repairs and replacements, engine and rotor work, and helicopter sustainment support; a representative large delivery order valued at $1.637 million (awarded March 13, 2023) covered two engines and RGB (TWINPAC) exchange. Secondary customer concentration sits with the United States Special Operations Command (35 awards, $25.9 million combined potential value) and the Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command (45 awards, $2.8 million combined potential value), though these represent a much smaller share of the overall book. The vendor serves 18 distinct customer agencies across its footprint.

The top three parent vehicles by task-order volume are Interior Department indefinite delivery contracts: IND17PC00205 (84 task orders, $9.9 million), 140D8021D0008 (64 task orders, $11.8 million), and IND12PC00158 (52 task orders, $7.7 million). Activity has grown steadily, from 13 prime awards in 2022 to 26 in 2025, with 9 awards recorded in the first half of 2026. The recompete cliff is minimal: only one award ($135 thousand combined potential value) faces completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating an extended runway on core Interior work through 2027–2031.

Summit Aviation's capability portfolio concentrates on NAICS 488190 (Other Support Activities for Air Transportation) and PSC codes for maintenance, repair, and rebuild of aircraft and components. The vendor holds a diverse subcontractor base for defense-oriented work, subcontracting to The Boeing Company on CH-47F Chinook, UH-1N, and aircraft parts work; to Lockheed Martin Corporation on MH-47G special operations helicopters and fleet support; to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation on avionics and aircraft systems; and to Tyonek Technical Services and KBR Wyle Services on narrower support scopes. The sub-award footprint (37 sub awards across the portfolio) reflects secondary positioning on major defense primes rather than a primary business line.

SCI-reportable service contract invoicing totaled $3.3 million across FY2023 and FY2024 (with no FTE data captured in the SCI dataset, indicating either very limited reportable labor or structure as supply-chain work), a narrow slice of the vendor's total federal revenue and not representative of the larger Interior maintenance contracts, which are structured as firm fixed-price delivery orders for materials and labor combined rather than as time-and-materials or labor-hour service contracts. The vendor registered in SAM in April 2002 and has operated continuously as a federal contractor since that date.
